You'd think that having 5 "waves", two of which easily infected 50% of the population, most waves while having vaccines available, lockdowns and ... would have proven beyond anyone's reasonable doubt that the measures (and heavy handed government enforcement) were totally ineffective. "Wrong" in other words.

Essentially all governments initially promised a lockdown with the express purpose of not having to deal with a long drawn-out epidemic. I can only say: Well done!

Then came the promises: okay, not short, but they'll keep vulnerable groups safe! Well, studies now say, most people vulnerable to covid ... died. Despite the measures.

So we have the worst of all possible worlds:

1) people who were sensitive to covid for some reason largely died (as proven by very comparable death rates between countries with vastly different measures, once you exclude the tiny, obviously lying (China, Russia, a bunch of others), islands other than Britain, or those that don't have any health care to effectively determine cause of death)

2) we had ENORMOUS negative impacts from ineffective measures to prevent 1.

But you can't talk with people who imagine they're disease free, and terrified of losing that "pure" status. It is very well known that any human's immune system is constantly fighting a few hundred battles with a few hundred different diseases, even in the cleanest human alive. And on top of that, fights with internal problems, like cancers, even the odd too enthousiastic immune system cell.

Of course, now that all measures have failed, people have generally decided to settle on the most hateful conclusion possible: that the spread of all waves was the fault of all these other people who don't agree with extreme measures ...

100%

So is freezing bank accounts of innocent people…
